asked.
“I’m a little pissed that you took off and didn’t answer my calls.”
“What about the way I acted last night?” Still unable to look at him.
“Nah,” he said. That was it.
“Why was she whispering in your ear?” I didn’t mean to sound so pissy, but I was and there was no getting around it.
Moon just started to laugh. That really pissed me off. My stomach started to get butterflies, and not the good kind. The mad kind, and mixed with a stomach full of alcohol was not a good combination. I had to force my muscles to relax or I was going to throw up.
“What the hell’s so funny?” I demanded, but I still couldn’t look at him.
“Sam?” he said, and I could tell he was still smiling way too big.
“What?” I snapped.
“Turn over. Look at me.” He said, quieter and more sincere.
Fuck!
I turned over slowly but didn’t look up.
“Look at me,” he said, as he rubbed my chin. And so I did.
“It was nothing like that, I promise.” He said, as he took a strand of my hair and tucked it behind my ear.
“Then why was she all up on you?” I needed to know.
“It was loud as hell in there. She was just asking how long I knew Junior. It was the only way I could hear her. I swear,” he said, and then kissed my forehead. “It was nothing.”
I just shook my head.
“Do you believe me?” He asked.
“I’m sorry for being an asshole,” I said. I knew he was telling the truth. Nothing about last night was very clear, but I did remember how loud it was.
“It’s ok to be jealous sometimes,” he said, as he scooted closer to me.
“I wasn’t jealous.” I lied.
“Liar,” he said, and then laughed quietly.
“I know,” I said, and nuzzled my face into his chest. Then Moon reached under the blanket and put his arm around me.
“Are you naked under there?” He said with bright eyes as he took a peak. I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Yep. But you can’t shake me around. I’ll puke. Not even kidding.” I said.
“You’re so mean,” he said.
“It’s too tempting under there,” he said, as he put his arm back on the outside of the blanket and scooted against me.
“Go to sleep Moon,” I said, as I curled in a ball against him.
“I’ll try, but he’s got a mind of his own and he likes attention,” he said, as he nodded his head downward.
“Fiend.” I said with a giggle.
“Only for you darlin,” he said, and wrapped his arm around my neck, then kissed me on the head.
I let out a loud exhale and drifted off to sleep.
Sunday Afternoon
I was working on getting my laundry done when I heard a text message come through.
Lainey: We’re baaacccckkkkk biotch!
Me: Ur gonna be a mom, you need to lose the fucking trash mout h
Lainey: Every bad thing I ever learned was your fault.
Me: True. Are you home?????????
Lainey: On our way. Come see me tonight! I miss your face!
Me: Ok. We’ll come over around 7?
Lainey: We?
Me: Moon
Lainey: YAY!
Me: Don’t start. Are you craving anything yet fatty?
Lainey: Um, first, fuck you. And second. PIZZA!!!!
Me: Those prego hormones have kicked in I see. LOL.
Lainey: Between you and MY HUSBAND, it’s hard not to use the F word in every conversation, even without raging hormones.
Me: Don’t blame me for your dirty mouth. LOL! NEway, I’m bringing you greasy cheesy pizza
Lainey: Thank you!!!!!! I love you. Like for real!
Me: Hurry home bitch!
When I walked through the house to take my laundry to my room, I looked over at the roses on the bar. Moon had another one waiting on my doorstep this morning. There were nine of them. I got excited every morning, knowing there would be another one waiting. I wondered how long he was going to keep it up. He had to go back to work in a couple of days, so the end was probably coming soon. Work. Ugh. I had blocked it from my mind for the last few days. I didn’t want to think about him going back to work. It pissed me off a little to think about him leaving.
